| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A low pressure system that moved through the Delmarva Peninsula coastal waters brought heavy snow to Sussex County and a wintry mix of precipitation across the rest of Northwest New Jersey. Snow began across the region during the morning on the 10th. Enough warm air at higher levels of the atmosphere moved into the area for precipitation to change over to a rain and freezing rain mixture by sunset on the 10th, except for Sussex County where precipitation remained mainly snow. The heaviest precipitation was over by midnight on the 10th, but lighter snow and/or flurries lingered until around sunrise on the 11th. Snowfall accumulations averaged around 6 inches in Sussex County and 1 to 3 inches elsewhere. The wintry precipitation caused accidents throughout the area, although no serious ones were reported. Specific accumulations included 6 inches in Wantage and Sussex (Sussex County), 5.5 inches in Montague (Sussex County), 5 inches in Newton (Sussex County), 3 inches in Long Valley (Morris County), 2.4 inches in Chatham (Morris County), 2 inches in Boonton (Morris County) and Pottersville (Somerset County) and 0.8 inches in Flemington (Hunterdon County) and Stewartsville (Warren County). |
